Mateus Souza

I am an assistant professor at the Department of Economics at the University of Mannheim. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the EnergyEcoLab (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid). I received my Ph.D. in Applied Economics from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign in 2020.

I am an affiliate of the CESifo Research Network (Energy and Climate Economics), and the CRC TR 224 EPoS (B07: Policies for Sustainability).

My primary fields of expertise are energy and environmental economics. I employ econometrics and machine learning tools for research in various topics mostly related to: interventions and price incentives for energy savings or adoption of energy-efficient technologies; behavioral energy economics; sustainable urban mobility; links between air pollution and health; among others.
